my home network isnt trustworthy and i cant change anything about it becuase its not mine. my mom has a virus on her computer and she doesnt let me do anything about it (she says im trying to spy on her and ill mess with her stuff even though the virus is spyware lol)
also i go in public and use the wifi i dont want a virus or be spyed on anywhrre (i hate shcool) you cant go in the back and mess with other peoples stuff
im using framework (12 i think) with qubes but i want to use a normal computer with a normal gamnig distro (the framework will explode if i use qubes and play games im sure) (if i could play games on qubes privately it would make me very happy)
wqat do i do
Be aware that you will have no privacy on the school’s network. They usually block all known VPN endpoints, and require certs that will allow MiTM even for HTTPS connections. For lotsa reasons it’s best to cleanly separate personal activity, from school activity. Or work activity when you get a job.
Since you mentioned “gaming distro”… what I do for private gaming is buy games from GOG. Every one I ever tried runs fine even with no network access. You can use sth like firejail to do this super easy. No need to set up a VM or w/e. Then you know it isn’t phoning home. B/c it can’t!
Plus, all their games are DRM-free. Which is part of what makes them private. I’d rather my dollars support DRM-free stuff. Supply and demand. The more ppl buy DRM games, the more it teaches game vendors that we don’t care. There are other DRM-free stores too. Stay away from Steam. Go for GOG, Humble, and w/e else. Then you can have private gaming.
